No Man’s Sky Outlaw Update Introduces New Solar Ships and Outlaws

No Man’s Sky Update 3.85
No Man’s Sky Update 3.85 Hello Games

No Man’s Sky is back with another major update that adds new Solar Ships, the Outlaw System, and so much more. Update 3.85 also improves the visual effects, which should enhance the experience when traveling through multiple galaxies.

Bored of the old starships? Well, that’s going to change with the introduction of Solar Ships. These ships have many variations and are known to be versatile. Players can now own up to nine ships from this update, which gives them the perfect opportunity to grab these new ships.

Traveling across galaxies is no longer safe because the Outlaws have taken control of some space stations, which have fallen into conflict. While exploring these can be dangerous, they may be ripe for resources during raids.
